AccuWeather.com was changed (by ?) to C instead of F--I clicked on "C'-won't let me change it to "F". Anyone know how? I am using ver. 28-I like it.

Suddenly, the type of my temperature on AccuWeather changed. I have used it for over 7 years and never changed it, nonetheless, changed it is! I went to the block showing the type (C or F) clicked on it-nothing. Highlighted it, would not change the C to F. Actually, I could not select it as support at AccuWeather told me to do. Does anyone have any idea how I can get AccuWeather to change back to showing the temperature using Fahrenheit? I am using Firefox version 28 because I like it and it supports "Morning Coffee". I have NEVER had this problem before, have added no new programs, hardware, no changes other than what I have just described. Any help is certainly appreciated. Windows 7 Professional, latest version, kept up to date. Thank you in advance, Debbie
